I've been trying to get my iso that I made with EB running in a VMware environment (vm as freebsd environment to simulate most given bootup scenarios). ATM I would like to add two options to the menu

1) option A
2) option B

Option B is working : I used the "Export feature in UISO" to get the files onto my ezboot. Then I got the "*.bif" file as well. That option works perfectly so when I run the iso in my VM it opens up with the menu and I can run option B perfectly.

Option A is not working at all. I used all possile solutions that I've found here on the forums. here's my command line: "bcdw /ezboot/isolinux memdisk initrd=optiona.bif"
. As I've said i used...
1.) bcdwldr instructions
2.) bcdw /ezboot/isolinux memdisk initrd=.... instructions
3.) CDShell instructions
4.) "run optiona.bif" instructions
5.) "bootinfotable; run optiona.bif" instructions
6.) "converting the orig iso into img, bin etc"

What happens when I choose "option A", it loads the program but then just freezes with this error message:

   Loading boot sector... booting...

It just sits there and doesnt go on. Any idea what I am doing wrong ? Option A was "designed" from a ISO which is linux based.
